Cover; Series-title; Title; Copyright; Contents; Preface; Notations; Chapter 1 Coalgebras and comodules; Chapter 2 Bialgebras and Hopf algebras; Chapter 3 Corings and comodules; Chapter 4 Corings and extensions of rings; Chapter 5 Corings and entwining structures; Chapter 6 Weak corings and entwinings; Appendix; Bibliography; Index.
This is the first extensive treatment of the theory of corings and their comodules. In the first part, the module-theoretic aspects of coalgebras over commutative rings are described. Corings are then defined as coalgebras over non-commutative rings. Topics covered include module-theoretic aspects of corings, such as the relation of comodules to special subcategories of the category of modules (sigma-type categories), connections between corings and extensions of rings, properties of new examples of corings associated to entwining structures, generalisations of bialgebras such as bialgebroids.
